摘要:
A method for upstream traffic control in an Ethernet-based passive optical network, adapted for preventing a penalty phenomenon occurring in making upstream data transfer on basis of High Priority First Allocation (HPFA) algorithm. The method includes the steps of determining whether are any data frames to transfer in the first buffer; if it is determined that there are any data frames to transfer in the first buffer, determining whether the data frame does not exceed a low water mark indicative of a reference value set up to ensure the minimum transfer traffic; if it is determined that the data frame in the first buffer does not exceed the low water mark, then transferring the data frame stored in the first buffer and determining whether the data frame in a second buffer does not exceed the low water mark; if it is determined that the data frame in the second buffer does not exceed the low water mark, then determining whether the data frame to transfer in a third buffer does not exceed the low water mark; if it is determined that the data frame to transfer in the third buffer does not exceed the low water mark, then transferring the respective data frame stored in the second and third buffers.

A system and method for managing link status in Gigabit Ethernet passive optical network (GE-PON) units (ONUs) is disclosed. The GE-PON comprises one or more ONUs allocated data transmission periods, respectively. Each of the ONUs sends a report signal and a data signal in a corresponding one of the allocated data transmission periods. The report signal contains a signal to request allocation of a bandwidth for data signal transmission in a next window period. The GE-PON further comprises an optical splitter having its one side connected with the ONUs and its other side connected with at least one optical communication channel. The optical splitter switches an input signal to a desired destination. The GE-PON further comprises an optical line terminal (OLT) for determining whether the report signal is received, identifying a specific one of the ONUs having sent the report signal when the report signal is received, determining whether the data signal is received from the specific ONU in a specific one of the data transmission periods allocated to the specific ONU, and discriminating and managing a link status of the specific ONU in accordance with the determination made.

A GE-PON (Gigabit Ethernet-Passive Optical Network) system is provided that configures upstream and downstream frames on the basis of a variable-length Ethernet frame. The GE-PON system employs TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) for upstream packet transmission in a tree structure for a point-to-multipoint connection. A structure of a frame format is also provided that is capable of effectively accommodating Gigabit Ethernet traffic in the GE-PON system and a method is provided for implementing various functions such as initial ONU registration, late ONU registration, ranging, and dynamic bandwidth allocation in the GE-PON system.

MAC (Media Access Control) for an EPON (Ethernet Passive Optical Network system) defined in an IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) 802.3ah EFM (Ethernet in the First Mile) standard is implemented using general MAC based on an IEEE 802.3 standard. LLID (Logical Link ID) information is inserted at a predetermined position of a frame outside its preamble and the frame containing the LLID information is transferred to a higher layer so that general MAC can be used as MAC for the EPON system. A physical layer of the EPON system contains LLID information within a preamble and transfers the preamble containing the LLID information. An RS (Reconciliation Sublayer) configures a new Ethernet frame by inserting the LLID information at a predetermined position of the Ethernet frame outside the preamble. The RS transfers the new Ethernet frame to a higher data link layer of the EPON system. The data link layer transfers the new Ethernet frame containing the LLID information.

A Gigabit Ethernet passive optical network (GE-PON) for securely transferring data through exchange of an encryption key comprises an optical line terminal (OLT) for encrypting a secret key using a public key received through a transmission medium, transmitting the encrypted secret key, encrypting data using the encrypted secret key, and transmitting the encrypted data, and at least one optical network terminal (ONT) for transmitting the public key to the OLT, decrypting the encrypted secret key transmitted from the OLT using a private key, and decrypting the data encrypted with the encrypted secret key, transmitted from the OLT, using the decrypted secret key.

An idle pattern output-control circuit used in a point-to-multipoint communication based Gigabit Ethernet-passive optical network (GE-PON) is provided. In a GE-PON having an optical-line terminal (OLT), a plurality of optical-network units (ONUs) connected to each other via an optical-distribution network (ODN), a media-access controller (MAC), and a physical-coding sublayer (PCS), in which the PCS transmits idle-pattern data to a serializer/deserializer (SERDES) when there is no data to be transmitted to the OLT, an idle-pattern output-control circuit comprising a data converter for converting an idle-pattern data generated from the PCS into a low-level optical signal for subsequent transmission to the OLT, and a switching circuit for selecting data generated from the PCS for subsequent transmission to the SERDES when there is data to be transmitted and for selecting data converted by the data converter for subsequent transmission to the SERDES when there is no data to be transmitted.
